They darn sure make concrete light stands like they used to. I sure hope his insurance company sees that and denies any coverage for repairs.

They were having one hell of a time for about 30 seconds! I would have gotten my car farther away from the danger.

Hahah. Needs more practice.

I saw one the other day with a Dodge product, I think that climbed the block/pole and then rolled over onto its side or top.

you have to do those things with a crowd around to be on the safe side..
they always go for the crowd and you'll have less damage that way...

I just don't understand the desire to do donuts. I really don't. Especially in my car that I pay for the repairs and the tires. It seems to be really popular on most TV car shows.

Yea, I have had fun doing donuts on a snowy or icy parking lot but it takes little power, and does zero damage to anything. I have done donuts in the mud in a VW based dune buggy, but that makes a muddy mess of the dune buggy so the fun factor is severely limited since I have to clean it up.

Now get off my lawn!

Right get a handful of people to stand far away from any hard obstacles and the mustag will always veer towards the people and away from the hard obstacles.

That's because you're old and you have an understanding of the sweat equity in money. You also don't feel the need to show off or prove yourself.

Only an idiot would watch or do this kind of childish BS.

even just a regular burnout.. it's pointless cause it means your're not accelerating as fast as possible...

The clockwise donuts are always the hard ones.

what is a roller? the guy posted "rollers and pictures"

porsche tech · 09-15-2020, 12:51 PM

If it were an Audi owner they would have claimed unintended acceleration.

Zeke · 09-15-2020, 01:25 PM

I thought that was hilarious. Well deserved.

Hah...I remember that very clearly.
A terrible wrong that Audi had to endure.

I find such displays of conspicuous consumption ridiculous. There isn’t even an element of competition or an exhibit of skill. It’s just burn up tires and fuel until you run into something. Who is this supposed to impress?
